Console’s review

· Reviewed by David Mytton

What we like

Preview environments for your entire app - frontend, backend, database, and any other containerized service. Spins up new environments on PRs or on-demand. Use for testing, QA, or demos. Access logs and monitoring stats. SSH into the environment for debugging. CLI to create and manage environments.

Tradeoffs

Only way to configure environments is via Docker Compose, although this does mean the preview environments match your local environment (and hopefully prod, too).

Console is a free weekly newsletter with short reviews of developer tools, covering strengths and tradeoffs. This review reflects our assessment at publication. Read our selection criteria and learn about Console.
